One captivating legend attributes the hanging stone as the beating heart of the slumbering Sayan, the guardian spirit of the taiga. According to this myth, the gods extracted her heart and placed it on the cliff’s edge. The stone resonates with the mountain’s pristine winds, creating a rhythmic sound akin to a heartbeat.

Another legend foretells that should the hanging stone plunge into the lake below, it would signal the awakening of the guardian spirit, Sayan, from her eternal slumber to protect her homeland. The resulting splash would cleanse her face, marking the dawn of a new epoch and the resurgence of life.
